Beautiful Port Villa induction - Our friendly tour guide picked us up directly from the hotel and was driving us to the main historical buildings and nice photos spots. We received our first induction of Port Villa and Vanuatu. The tour was ending at the famous markets where we could spend the afternoon. Thanks to the nice, funny tour guide!!!!

Pt Vila sightseeing - Exceptionally good tour. Paul, our guide was extremely knowledgeable regarding the home life, education and the politics of the region. He also had a great sense of humour!

A fantastic introduction to Port Vila! - We did this tour on our second day in Port Vila and it was a great way to become more familiar with this vibrant and diverse city. Our tour guide Paul was friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and so much fun! We really enjoyed our time. Our four year old daughter loved it as well and is still talking about Paul! Highly recommend for any first time travellers to Vanuatu.

Very Happy - We were very happy we chose this tour on Viator. The tour guide was very friendly and the vehicle was very clean. It was a private tour just for the two of us around the city with stops for photos and detailed information about the city. It may be slightly pricey just for the city sightseeing but who can give you a better perspective on the city than a local guide. So, it is worth the money. He even offered to walk with us in the Maket and explain local produce etc. I highly recommend this tour if this is your first visit to Port Vila. Do it as soon as you land to make the most of it and learn about all cool restaurants and hangouts to help plan your days better.

2.5 hour Port Vila sighseeing tour - Tour guide Joel was excellent. Went over and above to give us a great tour. Flexible to change from going to fruit market to museum. We were advised the museum guide was away that day so Joel stepped in and did that too.

Lots to see but expensive, hot and humid - In a 4 hour tour we saw the cultural centre, the waterfall and the turtle/iguana farm. $20 per person entry fee for each one on top of the $100 per person bus fare. There were 6 of us so somebody made a tidy profit.

Great way to spend a couple of hours in Port Vila - Informative and interesting. Saw many different places around town. Customised so we didn't spend time on what we had already seen. The guide was lovely and we learned about the history of the buildings and sites. Very enjoyable if you are looking to spend an hour or so learning about Port Vila.

Waste of money and time - Waste of money. Driver turned up 20 minutes late only after a phone call from our resort. We drove around Port Vila and stopped at a lookout to take a photo of the view. The driver was not very informative, and we gained no information of where to eat or shop. Did not stop anywhere else. Expected to stop at markets for a few minutes - drove straight past. The tour is advertised as being 1 to 2 hours. Ours lasted 45 minutes. When we mentioned we wanted to be left in town after our tour all he was interested in was where did we want to be dropped off.... Tour date 9th September 2023

Without interest - First None if the phone Numbers mentioned worked. No one came to pick us up on the day and time scheduled. When the hotel finally got evergreen they said they would come the day after. An english guide indeed came while we had reserved a french one. It was a 45 min ride with no stopping anywhere. Without interest.
